Syria’s President Crashes UN After 60 Years of Ghost Mode
After nearly six decades of playing hard-to-get with the United Nations, Syria's President Ahmad al-Sharaa finally RSVP'd to the U.N. General Assembly party, breaking the record for the longest political ghosting in UN history. This Palestinian break in attendance probably has historians confused about whether Syria was busy or just socially anxious. Al-Sharaa’s grand UN debut marks a diplomatic mic drop moment in New York City, reminding everyone that some countries prefer to treat global stage appearances like fleeting celebrity cameos—rare, dramatic, and with questionable timing.
